Sounds good. Sounds like you are doing it right, instead of rushed. Looking forward to it.

Thank you for acknowledging this! I can not accept that it could be expected behaviour. If this would be how the real Hornet worked, the software would be rewritten. Software behaviour like this would be completely unacceptable in a real combat environment.

I still have this issue after nov 18 update. Mav-E won't lock until I switch SOI to TPOD. Loses lock when swithching back to Mav SOI. Regains when switching to TPOD. However, it works with the first Mav, I can then get a lock when Mav is SOI! This is most definitely a bug. Attaching track. Mav-E not locking.trk Sub mav-e.miz

It's here, and what a game changer it is! I love it!

I have this issue as well. Primarily, the new post highlights are not removed after reading.

Yes, that's what I was referencing. Thanks anyway!

No, I don't want the TPOD to constantly follow the helmet, just working like you describe would be perfect! I have been cursing more than once, trying to slew the TPOD to a target I can easily see off to my side, and failing. If I can just get the TPOD to look in the direction I designate, I will be one happy puppy!

I can't stop thinking that pointing the Litening targeting pod with the JHMCS would be so practical, and a logical thing to do. Is it done in real life? Is it a feature just not implemented yet, or is it not realistic and will never come? I mean, it's the Joint Helmet Mounted _Cueing_ System, what would be more natural than using it for cueing? With the upcoming feature (see latest Mini update) to designate ground target points with the JHMCS, will the TPOD automatically slave to that target point if activated?

It's a mission in the Raven One campaign. Sorry, don't remember exactly what mission.

Hi! I'm using the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, and I'm flying in VR as well. I'm not familiar with VR FA-18C though. However, I have no issues with using the throttle and stick, regardless of VR or not. As far as i know, the controls you are using shouldn't be related to VR. Are you sure you have your HOTAS set up correctly in settings? I don't use any additional software for either VR or my HOTAS, and it works flawlessly. Try without any extra software, thats just likely to mess things up.

AI Hornet is taxiing right into me on the supercarrier deck, I have no way of escaping. If only I could request a pushback.... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kypmPPuABVUeUYZiCTp5DXAGsBCP_4M8/view?usp=sharing

I have this issue as well, mav won't lock until I sensor select back to TPOD.

It's been updated to be more realistic. Use the "STD HDG" (stored heading) button on the HSI page to cut the time from something like 8 minutes to 1,5 min. Provided you haven't moved your jet since it was last started of course.

Yes

Fantastic campaign! Recently finished it, felt so sad it was over so soon! Hence, I started all over again.... :smilewink: The only thing I could have wanted more of was references to last mission in the following briefings. But other than that, all great! Fantastic voice acting, compelling and engaging missions, good variation. Really recommend it! Worth every penny! I'm hungry for more!

I have this issue as well...

It's not viacom, it's vaicom, if you want to google it. There is a subforum for it here as well. It's used as a plugin for VoiceAttack, so you need both. Can be a little bit finicky to set up correctly, but once you get it working, it's wonderful. Especially if you're using VR. And it really adds to the immersion to really talk to ATC, ground crew, your wingman, etc. I really recommend it!

Yeah, that's what I figured was needed, but when I tried, the bombs dropped in pairs. But others seem to have made it work, so maybe I just missed a step! Will try again! Thanks!

Ha! Fair enough! :lol:

Yeah, I don't dispute that!

Yes, I got that down, as I tried to describe in my post above. The question is: How would I go about releasing all 4 bombs with a single pickle? Is it at all possible?

Yeah, I did some experimenting, and as long as I have 4 jdam:s on 4 different stations I can drop on 4 different targets with one long pickle. jdam page -> msn -> designate tgt with tpod -> step -> slew to next tgt -> step -> slew to next tgt etc -> undesignate tpod -> return-> select all 4 stations -> pickle. But if I have dual racks, i.e. 4 bombs on 2 stations, I can't do it for the life of me. I can get the 4 coordinates to be stored on stn2 too1+too2 and stn8 too1+too2, but I can't get the bombs to drop on the 4 different coordinates in one pickle. Could you please enlighten me how to be intelligent about this?

It is absolutely out of the question that in real life you wouldn't be able to pick four targets with the TPOD and drop on them simultaneously. It's just too easy to solve with software. To stump one's ability like that would be just silly. Maybe ED is required to depict the behaviour like that because it's classified, maybe they just don't want JDAM:s to be too powerful. But it's simple logic: Each weapon is capable of storing its own target coordinates. The TPOD is capable of generating coordinates. To not write software that can send different coordinates to each bomb and then release them all at once in a modern jet would be silly. Only thing that could be a problem that I can think of would be if you couldn't send different coordinates to each bomb when you have two bombs on the same station, due to the wiring.

The fundamental problem is Eagle Dynamics monetization system. They make money by selling new modules, not by completing old ones. There is no economic incentive to finish anything with this model. A subscription based system would turn things around I think. I don't want a subscription based system though. Anyway, I'm sure ED will own up and finish this module eventually. They are honest people after all.

Ah, that figures. Like you aren't busy enough in the cockpit as it is anyway. And the possibility of a calculation error on top of that... Really goes to show why only the very best can become fighter pilots!
